Significant progress has been made in the diagnosis of seborrheic dermatitis. It isbased on the anamnesis and clinical picture of skin lesions. Carrying out a detailedanalysis of the structure and size of the body in combination with clinical and instrumentalstudies allows us to further make a more reliable prognosis of complications of thisdisease and improve the results of treatment of such patients. The aim of the study wasto establish and analyze the features of the skinfold thickness in Ukrainian men andwomen with seborrheic dermatitis of varying severity. Skinfold thickness (SFT) wasdetermined in 40 men and 40 women (aged 25 to 44 years) with generalized fattyseborrheic dermatitis (mild and severe). The control group consisted of SFT values ofpractically healthy men (n=82) and women (n=154) of the same age group from thedatabase of the research center National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya.Statistical processing of SFT indicators was performed in the license package "Statistica6.0" using non-parametric evaluation methods. Compared with practically healthy men,patients with mild and severe seborrheic dermatitis had lower SFT values on theposterior (by 49.7 % and 46.5 %) and anterior (by 41.9 % and 46.4 %) surfaces of theshoulder and chest (by 28.9 % and 27.9 %), on the thigh (47.3 % and 38.3 %), on theforearm (only compared to severe severity by 18.5 %), at the lower angle of the shoulderblade (only compared to mild severity by 3.5 %) and on the shin (only compared tosevere severity by 15.9 %), as well as higher values of SFT on the side (by 36.7 % and51.6 %); and in women patients of varying severity- also lower values of SFT on theposterior surface of the shoulder (by 51.0 % and 43.6 %), on the anterior surface of theshoulder (by 46.6 % and 31.0 %), on the chest (by 31.3 % and 18.9 %), on thighs (by47.4 % and 38.9 %) and on the shin (only compared to the mild degree by 10.2 %), aswell as higher values of SFT on the side (by 37.0 % and 44.6 %). Among men or womenwith seborrheic dermatitis of varying severity, only higher values were found in womenwith severe SFT on the anterior surface of the shoulder (by 22.6 %), and in men withsevere severity - higher values of SFT on the thigh (by 14.6 %). Manifestations ofsexual dimorphism of SFT among patients with seborrheic dermatitis of varying severitywere found only between men and women with severe disease, namely, higher values ofSFT in women on the front shoulder surface (by 28.6 %), forearm (by 16.0 %) and on theshin (by 26.3 %).
